Open a device on your network to the Internet
This router can provide access to devices on your local area network to the Internet using the Virtual Server, Special Application, method (DMZ NOT recommended).
DMZ
Access > Firewall & DMZ
You may want to expose a specific computer or device on your network to the Internet to allow anyone to access it. Your router includes the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) feature that makes all the ports and services available on the WAN/Internet side of the router and forwards them to a single IP address (computer or network device) on your
network. The DMZ feature is an easy way of allowing access from the Internet however, it is a very insecure technology and will open local area network to greater threats from Internet attacks.
It is strongly recommended to use Virtual Server (also called port forwarding, see
“Virtual Server” on page 35) to allow access to your computers or network devices from the Internet.
1. Make the computer or network device (for which you are establishing a DMZ link) has a static IP address. Signing up for a Dynamic DNS service (outlined in Identify Your
TRENDnet User’s Guide TEW-752DRU
Network section page 32) will provide identification of the router’s network from the Internet.
2. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page”
on page 25).
3. Click on Access, and click on Firewall & DMZ.
4. Select Enable in the DMZ Host section.
5. Enter the IP address you assigned to the computer or network device to expose to the Internet. Note: You can also click the Computer Name drop-down list to select a computer from your DHCP client list and click << to copy information into the field.
6. To save changes, click Save Settings.
Virtual Server
Access > Virtual Server
Virtual Server (also called port forwarding) allows you to define specific ports (used or required by a specific application) and forward them to a single IP address (a computer or device) on your network. Using this feature is more secure compared to using DMZ (see “DMZ” on page 34) in which DMZ forwards all ports instead of only specific ports used by an application. An example would be forwarding a port to an IP camera (TRENDnet IP cameras default to HTTP TCP port 80 for remote access web requests) on your network to be able to view it over the Internet. To open several ports please refer to “Port Forwarding” section on page 36.
Since most ISPs constantly change your home IP address, to be able to access the Virtual Server port(s) from the Internet it is recommended to setup Dynamic DNS service (outlined in Identify Your Network section page 32).
1. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page”
on page 25).
2. Click on Access, and click on Virtual Server.
3. Review the virtual server settings. Click Save Settings to save settings.
Check the option to the left most of the entry to enable and uncheck to disable.
• Name: Enter a name for the virtual server.
Note: You can also click the Application Name drop-down list to select from a predefined list of applications and click << to copy the information into the fields.
• IP Address: Enter the IP address of the device to forward the port (e.g.
192.168.10.101).
Note: You can also click the Computer Name drop-down list to select a computer from the DHCP client list and click << to copy the information into the field.
• Public Port: Enter the port number used to access the device from the Internet.
• Private Port: Enter the port number required by your device. Refer to the
connecting device’s documentation for reference to the network port(s) required.
• Protocol: Select the protocol required for your device. TCP, UDP, Both (TCP and UDP), or Other to define a non-listed protocol.
Note: The Public Port can be assigned a different port number than the Private Port (also known as port redirection), however it is recommended to use the same port number for both settings. Please refer to the device documentation to determine which ports and protocols are required.It is recommended to assign a static IP address to the device or use DHCP reservation to ensure the IP address of the device does not change.
• Schedule: Select the defined schedule you would like to have the rule to be applied (see “Create Schedule” section on page 34).
• Inbound Filter: Select the defined IP address range to allow access. (see “Inbound Filter” section on page 37).
Example: To forward TCP port 80 to your IP camera
1. Setup DynDNS service (see Identify Your Network section page 32).
TRENDnet User’s Guide TEW-752DRU
2. Access TRENDnet IP Camera management page and forward Port 80 (see product documentation)
3. Make sure to configure your network/IP camera to use a static IP address.
Note: You may need to reference your camera documentation on configuring a static IP address.
4. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page”
on page 25).
5. Click on Access, and click on Virtual Server.
6. Check the option next to the virtual server entry to enable.
7. Under Name, click the Application Name drop-down list and select the predefined HTTP entry, then click << to copy the application information to the fields.
8. Next to IP Address, enter the IP address assigned to the camera. (e.g. 192.168.10.101) 9. Next to Protocol, make sure TCP is selected in the drop-down list.
10. The Private Port and Public Port, make sure port number 80 is configured for both settings.
11. To save the changes, click Save Settings.
Port Forwarding
Access > Port Forwarding
Port Forwarding allows you to define a range of multiple public ports (used or required by a specific application or game) and forward them to a single IP address (a computer or device) on your network on a specific port. Using this feature is more secure compared to using DMZ (see “DMZ” on page 34) in which DMZ forwards all ports instead of only specific ports used by an application. Since most ISPs constantly change your home IP address, to be able to access the Virtual Server port(s) from the Internet it is recommended to setup Dynamic DNS service (see “Identify your network over the Internet” section on page 32).
1. Log into your router management page (see “Access your router management page”
on page 25).
2. Click on Access, and click on Port Forwarding.
3. Review the port forwarding settings. Click Save Settings to save settings.
Check the option to the left most of the entry to enable and uncheck to disable.
• Name: Enter a name for the virtual server.
Note: You can also click the Application Name drop-down list to select from a predefined list of applications and click << to copy the information into the fields.
• IP Address: Enter the IP address of the device to forward the port (e.g.
192.168.10.101).
Note: You can also click the Computer Name drop-down list to select a computer from the DHCP client list and click << to copy the information into the field.
• Public Port: Enter the port range used to access the device from the Internet.
• Private Port: Enter the port number required by your device. Refer to the
connecting device’s documentation for reference to the network port(s) required.
• Traffic Type: Select the protocol required for your device. TCP or UDP.
Note: Please refer to the device documentation to determine which ports and protocols are required. You should assign a static IP address to the device or use DHCP reservation to ensure the IP address of the device does not change.
Application Rules Access > Application Rules
Application rules (also called port triggering) is typically used for online gaming applications or communication applications that require a range of ports or several ports to be dynamically opened on request to a device on your network. The router will wait for a request on a specific port or range of ports (or trigger port/port range) from a device on your network and once a request is detected by your router, the router will forward a single port or multiple ports (or incoming port/port range) to the device on your network. This feature is not typically used as most devices and routers currently use UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) to automatically configure your router to allow access for applications. See “Enable/disable UPnP on your router” on page 31.
Note: Please refer to the device documentation to determine if your device supports UPnP first, before configuring this feature.
